Well, our dual SU L26 uses about 5.5 GPH, so I'd guess 5 - 6 GPH depending on the track and your tune.

I know how you can reduce fuel consumption and drop a little weight in the process. :P

It depend a great deal on the and how you drive it. The range is 1.0 to 6.786 gallons per hour. On an average track driven at normal race speeds the answer is 5.3674 gal/hour.
